Hi I just joined yesterday and so I thought Id introduce myself. My name is Mike and I live in Eagle Mountain, Utah. I bought a load of chickens this last spring and am enjoying the benefits of fresh eggs and fresh meat. I also have 5 goats (3 of which I milk), 1 sheep (used to have 6 but 5 are in the freezer), 11 horses, 1 mule, 3 dogs, 2 cats, 1 parrot and 9 kids (only 2 are left at home) and 8 grandkids with one more coming in a couple of months. I also on occasion will raise a buffalo and or a steer for the freezer as well. I started raising chicken because I am tired of hearing all the health warnings about the food we eat, so I figured the way to concur that was to raise all my own food. So now here I am, looking to find out what I am doing right and where I am way off track. So I am looking forward to making all you acquaintances and hopefully we can help each other out along the way.
